Since July, my team at @cmudelphi has been tracking the dropping case fatality rate, deciphering what share of the drop might owe to actual drops due to treatment (vs testing, younger infectees, etc). Drops of 55-60% appear plausible! Learn more here:https://delphi.cmu.edu/blog/2021/01/28/unpacking-the-drop-in-covid-19-case-fatality-rates/ …

That’s helpful to know. I don’t know about the U.S, but atm U.K. hospitals are at capacity. So there may be a disconnect between hospital # and what’s happening in the community. Early in the pandemic, hospitals were recording known COVID deaths as other complications.
But awesome work. Just as I read through the paper, I was seeing it through the lens of what was going on in the U.K.
